Magikal Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Makes me think of Pat Lafontanne (sp?) and Eric Lindros (as well as his brother) Some amazing careers cut short due to head injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CB007 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Doesn't a compressed skull means he has headaches probably constantly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB007 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Here is the hit: The back of Cote's helmet caught all of Geoffrion's head (on second review ok maybe not, not sure) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bieksasangryface Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 He had a depressed skull fracture. That is much more severe than a concussion. Can affect motor skils and speech, among a host of other things. Usually resuts in minor brain damage as well. Good luck to him in his new ventures.
